Motorola Mobility obtains WindMade label

29-01-2013

Motorola Mobility has been awarded the WindMade certification label, demonstrating that 66% of the power used in its U.S. operations is covered by wind energy.

WindMade is a global consumer label for companies that use wind
energy and other renewables. The label, which is backed by the UN
Global Compact and conservation group WWF, requires participating
companies to obtain at least 25% of their electricity from wind
power. Motorola Mobility's U.S. operations, however, achieve a much
higher share, with 66% of the operation's power consumption covered
by wind power.

The WindMade label was created to
allow companies to communicate their commitment to renewable energy
while providing consumers with the choice to favor companies and
products using wind power. Recent studies have shown that consumers
around the world would prefer companies procuring renewable
energy.

"As one of WindMade's pioneer companies, we are delighted that
Motorola has completed the certification," commented Henrik
Kuffner, CEO of WindMade. "Carrying the label will allow Motorola
to demonstrate to its customers that the company is working hard to
minimize the environmental impact of its operations."

WindMade certification supports Motorola Mobility's Green Energy
vision to maximize energy efficiency and use of renewable energy
sources such as wind and solar power. This vision is well
aligned with that of its parent company, Google, which has invested
over $990 million in renewable energy.

"We have gradually increased our renewable energy purchases over
time and WindMade Certification helps us communicate to our
customers that we are serious about taking action on climate
change." says Olson.
